Iran should be buying at least the Chinese 053H (Jianghu-I) type 1500 ton displacement range frigates that can handle extended blue water operations. If the Chinese are not that reliable partners then North Korean military ship building and armament is more than adequate along with technology transfer. Iran is building quite decent commercial ships and tankers so local manufacture of Frigate class ships armed with local SSM's (C-802and C 803)should be quite possible. The Jamaran and the almost completed Velayet are good intial efforts but Iran needs at least 50 major surface combattants to be taken seriously as a blue water navy. Less talk and more action from the government.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
